I'm putting this up because its true for me right now..

I'm headfirst into a funk. Not really a band funk, but a life funk..... and the fact that I got a slight unfill a little over a month ago.. I am able to eat more in quantity and more types of bad food......... NOW I swore that if this happened I would RUN not Walk to get a refill........ however I have not done so yet, because I actually think I am at my sweet spot, I just have to get my head on straight and work my plan.

The time has come for me to post my long awaited 1st year bandversary entry.

What has my band meant to me? I have asked myself this question many times over the last 12 months.

I’ve come up with a laundry list of ramblings.

Preband – it represented HOPE, Anxiety, and the What if’s of life after WLS
Early Post Band – the what the heck did I do? And WHERE THE HELL IS MY RESTRICTION?
1st Fill anticipation...

I looked at my first entry and it was from 12/27/2006............ wow so much has changed since then.

Namely....... my weight! shakeit shakeit shakeit
I have a real blog that I post to weekly that is tied to my signature line.......

I got insurance approval in January but couldn't get scheduled until April 26,2007 due to the hospital my insurance required...... so I went on a farewell to food tour and gained weight..
finally April 1, 2007 I faced the scale...

Hi Ya folks... I have no idea who besides me will ever read this,but I have to put my thoughts down on something.....

I decided to get the band after I found out it was covered on my insurance.... well not entirely true....... I had been thinking, debating, pondering, calculating the cost for over a year now.

I have two very close friends who had the RNY.. one going on 4 years post op, and one going on 2 years post op... BOTH Have done wonderful, both have lost over 100...
